When your mental willpower is sufficient, you will often reach your potential beyond your imagination.
But when your mind surrenders and gives up first, you may not be able to perform even 10% of your usual level.
So what a person can achieve depends entirely on whether his psychology is strong enough.
This is the wonderful thing about human beings.
Being yelled at by Li Mingyu, Manchester City's morale improved a lot.
In fact, just now, Li Mingyu used Ballack's Roar to help his teammates improve their morale.
For Li Mingyu, there are really not many opportunities to use this skill. After all, this skill can only be used in times of adversity.
After coming to Manchester City, Li Mingyu has never encountered any adversity!
In this game, due to various factors, Manchester City's morale was severely hit. Li Mingyu seized this opportunity and used this active skill to help his teammates regain their morale.
Guardiola on the sidelines saw this scene and nodded happily.
Giving the captain's armband to Li Mingyu, who has only been with Manchester City for less than half a season, Guardiola also considered it very carefully.
The team's core midfielder, Manchester City's teammates are very convinced of Li Mingyu, and Li Mingyu's performance in this World Cup once again allowed people to see his strength.
Moreover, when Spain National Team temporarily became the captain, Li Mingyu's performance was also remarkable.
It happened that the captain Gundogan he had appointed at the beginning of the season was showing signs of being passive and sabotaging his work, so Guardiola, who was vigorous and resolute, immediately removed Gundogan's captain.
Li Mingyu became the captain of the team, which was also unanimously approved by the players.
After all, for the sake of a captain, no one is willing to have trouble with Li Mingyu, who is at the height of his power.
After the restart, the Liverpool player felt that the opposite Manchester City seemed a little different.
Manchester City's offense became smoother, and the expressions on the players' faces became more focused.
However, the Liverpool players did not flinch.
The two teams with high morale started a fierce fight.
The fans in the stands cheered from time to time. This was Liverpool attacking Manchester City's goal.
Suddenly, there was another burst of uneasy boos, which was Manchester City posing a threat to Liverpool's goal.
After more than ten minutes of continuous exchanges of offense and defense, both teams played a high-level offensive battle, which dazzled the fans at the scene.
This is Premier League's current battle between the top teams, and it's really exciting.
The head coaches of both sides are also constantly deploying their troops to ensure that there is no deviation in the physical fitness of each position.
In the 80th minute, Liverpool's attack was successfully tackled by Rodri in the 30-meter area of Manchester City.
Salah's pass was so purposeful that Rodri accurately judged the route and made a beautiful tackle to save the football.
Rodri kicked the ball to Bernardo Silva, and Manchester City's counterattack speed was astonishingly fast.
In an instant, five players appeared in the Liverpool team's half at the same time.
Li Mingyu responded quickly, and Bernardo Silva sent the ball over.
After catching the ball, Li Mingyu made a very light move to deflect the rushing Fabinho.
Fabinho has no choice but to get ready to hold Li Mingyu in an attempt to stop Li Mingyu's fast break.
But Li Mingyu waved his hand and opened Fabinho's arm that was grabbing his clothes. He accelerated and broke through Fabinho's defense.
Liverpool's middle door is wide open.
Li Mingyu dribbled the ball in the middle and rushed forward. Liverpool's defense could only start to recover toward the middle, exposing all the space on both wings.
Li Mingyu gave the football a gentle push and sent it to the left wing. Mahrez's position was so comfortable.
After taking a look at the defense in the middle, Mahrez chose an inverted triangle pass.
Gabriel Jesus in the penalty area has already pressed into the small penalty area, completely driving away the opponent's center back.
The middle of the penalty area and near the arc of the penalty area are completely open.
Li Mingyu came in from the back row at high speed and fired a furious shot. The football rushed into the penalty area like a white lightning.
However, Li Mingyu's kick was not very good. Generally, for long-range shots from the outside, since there are many players in the penalty area, most shots have to be kicked higher.
But Li Mingyu's kick almost touched the ground.
Liverpool's defensive players stretched out their feet to block it, but the speed of the football was too fast and they couldn't block it.
Liverpool's goalkeeper Alisson was very focused. Although there was a large crowd, his line of sight was not blocked.
Alisson quickly lowered his center of gravity and pounced sideways, blocking the trajectory of the football.
Just as Alisson was about to put the football into his arms, a leg stretched out from the crowd and gently blocked the football's path, causing the football to bounce towards the other side of the goal.
Alisson widened his eyes and turned his head to look at the goal on the other side in disbelief.
The football hit the net.
The entire Anfield Stadium fell into a dead silence.
And a figure wearing a blue and white jersey rushed out from the crowd.
Gabriel Jesus.
This young man Brazil stretched out his kick in the crowd and changed the direction of the football, leaving his national teammate Alisson to look at the ball and sigh.
When Li Mingyu shot the ball just now, he felt that his kick was powerful enough, but the angle was not grasped well, so he felt that the threat of this kick was not very great.
Unexpectedly, his kick turned into an assist, helping Gabriel Jesus score the go-ahead goal.
Guardiola on the sidelines breathed out gently, with a smile on his face.
Klopp on the other side looked unwilling. How could such a lucky ball be so attached to Manchester City!
However, Klopp also forgot that Manchester City's own goal in the first half was much luckier than this one.
It's not surprising, human beings have this strange trait. What comes to mind is usually who has treated me badly.
This goal deeply affected the Liverpool players, and even the fans felt a sense of despair.
Can we really not beat this Manchester City?
After the restart, the Liverpool team launched a crazy counterattack, while the Manchester City team sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and retreated to defend.
Even center Gabriel Jesus caught up to the corner flag, which shows how motivated Manchester City is in defense.
Injury time in the second half.
Liverpool won a corner kick opportunity for Liverpool through Salah's breakthrough pass from the wing.
This is the last minute of injury time, and this is also the last chance for Liverpool team to equalize the score.
A figure wearing a green jersey ran over from the half court of the Liverpool team.
Goalkeeper Alisson is not willing to be lonely and is ready to seize the last opportunity and contribute his strength.
There were almost twenty people, all crowded into the restricted area of Manchester City. The restricted area of Manchester City was almost so crowded that it was difficult to move even an inch.
Salah The corner kick came out, and goalkeeper Alisson tried his best to get the top shot, but his position was not under the spot.
Manchester City's goalkeeper Ederson relied on his use of his hands to jump up and barely slapped the football with his hand, sending it out of the penalty area.
The referee looked at his watch and saw that stoppage time was about to come. As long as the ball was far away from the goal, he would blow the whistle to end the game.
Outside the penalty area, Mane of Liverpool saw the football popping up and took a shot.
However, in the penalty area, a figure rushed out regardless of his own safety. In the horrified eyes of Mane, he used his chest to push the football out, then raised his right foot and swung it directly towards the football.
With a "bang" sound, the football flew high from the edge of the penalty area of Manchester City, directly crossing the half-courts of teams Manchester City and Liverpool. Looking at this trajectory, it was flying towards the goal of team Liverpool.
The referee originally wanted to blow the whistle to end the game, but when he saw the ball, he silently took down the whistle.
Liverpool Goalkeeper Alisson watched in stunned silence as the football fell into the empty penalty area. Afterwards, it bounced into the small penalty area, bounced up again, and smashed directly into the goal.
Even Manchester City's teammates found it incredible.
Not everyone can hit the ball directly towards the goal from such a long distance.
The referee made a gesture that the goal was valid and blew the whistle to end the game.
4:2, Manchester City once again defeated the Liverpool team in Anfield Stadium, completing the 16th consecutive victory in the league.
Next, the three opponents in the league are all teams ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the league. They do not pose much threat to Manchester City.
As long as the team can perform normally, the best result in Premier League's history, a complete victory in the middle of the game, will fall on Manchester City's head.
After defeating Liverpool, Manchester City's morale has reached its peak.
Although they have not yet started their 19th consecutive victory, the players of Manchester City have already regarded this honor as their own.
This is not only a Premier League league record, but also a Top Five Leagues record.
What does it mean to have defeated all other opponents in the league at the start of the match?
It shows that this team is the best team of Premier League, there is no doubt about it.
Now, the entire Premier League league, the entire England, is shrouded under this wave of Blue Moon.
Blue has become the main color of the Premier League League.
In the last round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester City did not have a main player, and finally lost to Bayer Leverkusen 0:3.
And Barcelona 2:0 defeated AC Milan.
As a result, Manchester City and Barcelona advanced to the top 16 of Champions League as first and second in the group respectively.
However, Manchester City's winning streak in various events also ended here.
However, no one would think Manchester City's approach is wrong. After all, this is a season with a devilish schedule, and the players' health is the most important thing.
Up to now, many players in many teams are injured due to excessive fatigue, which basically happens every day.
Manchester City's medical team will check and evaluate each player's physical condition every day to ensure that the player's body will not cause unnecessary injuries due to fatigue.
In the fourth round, FA Cup and Guardiola did not send any main players as usual, and continued to let the youth team coach Maresca lead the team.
Facing the English second division team Cheltenham, the youth team of Manchester City once again slaughtered their opponents.
The score of 10:0 can't help but raise eyebrows.
Although the opponent was a League Two team, this score was indeed a bit exaggerated.
The coach of the youth team Maresca has also attracted the attention of many teams, and many League One and even EFL Championship teams have offered him an olive branch.
But Maresca is very clear-headed about himself. He has just joined the young team of Manchester City and has not made any convincing results. He only led the team to participate in two games of FA Cup. Even if it is a big victory, it is not all his own credit.
The strength of Manchester City is there. Facing League One and the League Two team, victory is inevitable. Even the substitute lineup is very strong.
In order to let Li Mingyu get a good rest, Li Mingyu was put on the bench when he faced Norwich, who was ranked 13th in the league.
In the first half, the score of 2:0 made Li Mingyu sitting on the bench even more bored.
In the end, Manchester City defeated Norwich 3:0, taking another step towards his 19th consecutive victory in the competition.
The knockout draw ceremony for Champions League also ended at the UEFA headquarters of Switzerland Nyon.
The final result made Manchester City feel pretty good.
The teams that reached the top 16 are:
Group A: Liverpool, St. Petersburg Zenit Saint Petersburg.
Group B: Juventus, Arsenal.
Group C: Manchester United, Real Madrid.
Group D: Bayern Munich, Shakhtar Donetsk.
Group E: Manchester City, Barcelona.
Group F: Paris Saint-Germain, Dortmund
Group G: Chelsea, Napoli
Group H: Inter Milan, Sporting CP.
Drawing rules:
Teams from the same country do not touch each other.
The first group does not touch each other.
The second group does not touch each other.
The first and second players in the same group do not touch each other.
The first person in the group will be the guest before the host, and the second person in the group will be the host before the guest.
When the lot was drawn, Manchester City was drawn first.
After all the first place players in the group are drawn, the order of the second place players in the group begins.
Li Mingyu and Guardiola at the scene looked at the hands of the lottery guests with serious faces. No one wanted to meet a strong team so early.
Real Madrid, who is second in the group, is someone no one wants to meet.
Real Madrid originally had a good momentum, but De Bruyne was injured when UEFA European Championship, and Champions League was unable to participate in the last three group matches. Therefore, Real Madrid finally ranked second in the group.
However, De Bruyne has recovered from his injury recently and will definitely be able to make it to the knockout round of Champions League.
Therefore, no team wants to encounter a complete Real Madrid.
Finally, the lottery guest took out the note from the ball and read out the name on it!
Napoli!
Guardiola and Li Mingyu had a relaxed smile on their faces.
